About the book
This Penguin Classic is performed by Luke Thompson, best known for his role in the hit Netflix drama Bridgerton . This definitive recording includes an introduction by David McDuff. A deep, complex examination of the crucial philosophical questions of human existence, from one of the world's most renowned novelists 'The mystery of human existence lies not in staying alive, but in finding something to live for' The murder of brutal landowner Fyodor Karamazov changes the lives of his sons irrevocably: Mitya, the sensualist, whose bitter rivalry with his father immediately places him under suspicion for parricide; Ivan, the intellectual, driven to breakdown; the spiritual Alyosha, who tries to heal the family's rifts; and the shadowy figure of their bastard half-brother, Smerdyakov. Dostoyevsky's dark masterwork evokes a world where the lines between innocence and corruption, good and evil, blur, and everyone's faith in humanity is tested.
